I requested data be deleted from a data broker and live in Arizona:
> We are in receipt of your request dated September 12, 2023. You are submitting a request from a jurisdiction that does not currently provide data rights.
> We are in receipt of your request dated September 12, 2023. You are submitting a request from a jurisdiction that does not currently provide data rights.
You've agreed to their terms that don't violate the law, why would they forfeit their hard earned cash, even if it's the right thing to do?
I don't think there's much agreement going on with data brokers beyond very broad "we reserve the right to share your data with third parties to improve services" or some such. In most cases people are not interfacing directly with a data broker.
> why would they forfeit their hard earned cash, even if it's the right thing to do?
Usually to stave off regulation.
This is why we should pay for services. If someone wants something deleted from my app... I'll delete it. No problem. They pay me a subscription, I don't even want their data. It's a liability if anything.
You know what business scoundrels like more than profiting off your data and attention? Getting direct revenue from you, especially recurring one via subscription, and profiting off your data and attention on top of that. More than that, your choice to pay for a good or service demonstrates you have disposable income and are willing to spend it - i.e. a high-value target for advertisers.
> They pay me a subscription, I don't even want their data. It's a liability if anything.
This is (a big part of) the solution - but personal data isn't enough of a liability yet to deter the scoundrels.
So likely their isn't like if (state = ___) { delete } { else fuck you } but more like "if state = X, do state X logic, if state = Y, do state Y logic, else nothing"
its a total absence of requirements
think of it like requesting water at a bar or club. in the states without regulation, all the businesses say "you can only buy this $8 bottled water", the same hospitality organization has companies in another state that are like "oh yeah the tap water's right over there"
sure, they both have.... fire code requirements or whatever analogy you find more applicable, but they also will say { else fuck you } to all other aspects without any thought aside from what's most convenient
